Microsoft Great Plains, former Great Plains Software Dynamics, eEnterprise has very long, about 12 years customization & integration history. In earlier 1990th – the customization tool was mostly Great Plains Dexterity, later on when Great Plains was successfully moved to MS SQL Server 6.5, 7.0 and 2000 – we see more historical custom projects done in SQL stored procedures and front ends coded in VB in Visual Studio 6.0. This was probably wise and natural choice in that time (around 1997-2001), but if you consider Microsoft move to .Net platform and reshaping its own programming environments (ADO, OLE, VB, etc) – you would nowdays rather be nervous disgusting on VB 6.0 custom front end, calling stored procs via ADO. Let's consider your options: o Upgrade to .Net. As natural it might sound and look, however it might not be feasible. The reason is – .Net is the whole revolution to Windows object model (or its its introduction, somewhat more revolutionary, than J2EE / EJB / Java). Your old VB code is not object oriented in the sense of .Net and majority of technologies are now obsolete or in phase out mode o Move Front End to Web Application. Or recreate…

While many parts of your computer can be replaced to bring it back to normal, the myth that your hard drive recovery can be as simple as replacing certain components is only partially true. If you’ve experienced a crash, then you can understand the desperation many people go through when trying to find a cheap solution to recover the data. Even though the logic board replacement and platter fix solution is not free, some people attempt to have this service done to save lost data and recover important files on their hard disk. First, it’s been reported that efficient clean rooms cost companies hundreds of thousands of dollars. It’s safe to say that your local hardware component technician does not have the available funds to provide a clean room for their customers. The first error in this myth is that whoever claims to be able to fix hard drives likely does not open them in a safe, uncontaminated room like they should do. While you may consider this a viable fix for your broken drive, consider our article on clean room and its specification before attempting to have the platters or logic board replaced. Now, there are several refurbished sites…

Technology is becoming increasingly necessary and crucial for the business world. It does not matter what type of business we’re talking about – everyone, from huge multinational corporations to small business run from home, uses computers now to get the jobs done. Bookkeeping, accounting, orders, shipping and receiving, financial records, customer and client records, product lists and catalogs, and more are all stored on computers and that makes those computers and the data contained on them crucial components of any size enterprise’s day to day operating. But computers are not infallible. They are subject to crashes, so smart business owners make sure to back up their data in case something like that happens, whether they use an external hard drive or a stack of discs to get the job done. Unfortunately, while that is an important step to take in making sure your business is secure, those external drives and discs are still potentially not secure enough – if a disaster, be it man made or natural, occurs, then not only can the computer itself be ruined, so can those backup drives and storage discs. And that’s why disaster recovery is extremely important for companies both large and small. “Disaster…

Disaster Recovery is an unsatisfactory exercise if it is organized after a disaster. Just a lot of advance planning and preparation can ensure that the company resume operations quickly after a major disaster. What is disaster recovery? The term “disaster recovery” is often used these days in the context of Information Technology. When you talk about a disaster in a business context, usually means the loss of records, data, hardware and software so that the trade have become serious or even impossible. Most commercial operations are so heavily dependent on information technology than without it, the operations can grind to a halt. Disaster recovery is the process of obtaining the business operations of an operation after he was arrested because of a major information systems failure. The disaster may be the result of a natural disaster or a human action that had disastrous consequences. How the Disaster Recovery Plan? Identifying key company data and regular backups is a key element in planning for disaster recovery. Storing backup data in a different location makes it possible to recover data when a natural disaster destroys the equipment in the primary location. However, it can still be corrupted data on the system (s)…

Ok, so one of the common joked about side effects of anabolic steroid use is the classic “little penis” syndrome, where your penis supposedly shrinks up and gets smaller. We see this used all the time in everything from movies to sitcoms. Does this “joke” have any basis in reality or is it just another popular misconception about anabolic steroid use? In fact like any popular reference, there is a hint of truth to this myth, but it isn’t at all about the size of your penis, in fact has to do with the testicles. The testicles are responsible for producing the majority of a mans testosterone, therefore when the body senses more than enough testosterone being available (or testosterone analogs like anabolic steroids) in the hypothalamus, it works on a messenger system that controls the entire testosterone releasing process. This process involves the hypothalamus sending a messenger to the pituitary gland which then releases the chemical messengers follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), collectively known as gonadotropins. These then make their way to the testicles and in turn increase sperm production and testosterone production respectively. Now, when a person takes higher than normal levels of androgens like anabolic…

When your job is to repair air conditioning systems, and you are paid by the job or by the hour, then efficiency of your work must be important to you. In this short article, three types of air conditioning refrigerant recovery are introduced. These are liquid phase recovery, vapor phase recovery, and push-pull recovery. Knowing about all three, and using them when appropriate will speed up your work with refrigerant recovery machines, be it for air conditioning repair, air conditioning service, RV refrigerator repair, or similar jobs. Ultimately knowing about these three types of air conditioning service will make you more money in the shorter amount of time in your job. Liquid phase refrigerant recovery This is the fastest possible way to recover most if not all the refrigerant in the AC unit.

Liquid phase refrigerant reclaim is very suitable for container-to-container transfers, however, it is not suitable for all AC or HVAC systems. Vapor phase refrigerant recovery Vapor phase refrigerant recovery will transfer the refrigerant in its vapor phase. This is the most common and most frequently…
